Ajax manager Frank de Boer has said he is interested in signing former Chelsea striker Samuel Eto'o.
The Cameroon striker, who has been a free agent since leaving Stamford Bridge, reportedly spoke to the Dutch giants last week.
De Boer told Fox Sports: "It would be great for us if we could get a player like him. He has still got the ambition to show what he's got. He must take a role as leader, show our young players what it means to be a professional football player.
"He must be an example for our youth. I want him to show why he wants to come to us. We're looking for a striker and if it will be him, that would be great."
Ajax begin their season at home to Vitesse Arnhem on Sunday afternoon.
